As they should

That’s not the question. The suggested better approach is using outdated google results which is bad. You will manually filter all things ? And then go find a new list… Shit mate, google maps also has wrong and outdated information, already had it a few times listing closed shops as open.
Basically you’re saying using algorithm and partially accurate lists instead of one made by a human. The rest is just you pushing your bias to make assumptions since you have no idea.
If using guides is “letting someone do the thinking for me” then I should go in the country and visit all shops by myself and then do my own guide to see what I should visit?

Local cafes and restaurants may be closed. Some places may be under construction or restoration. Some hidden places may have become ultra touristic. Some neighborhoods may have become dangerous

Yes very useful to search for places half a decade ago
- Comment on TikTok allegedly monitoring users’ Grindr activity, digital rights group claims 2 weeks ago:
Videos come with hashtags which are text and thus searchable, then the algorithm recommends similar videos or other with the same keywords that are related.
A lot of information is better in a visual format than text: tourism guides and art for example.
Sure but you must know the forums and they have way less user base than TT where you have all content with a single search engine.
Yes there are a lot, note that they have a different feed for chinese citizens where there are probably way less.

Ahh I thought it was in English too

Stupid comment. Search “rare places to visit” on google and get ready for 10 pages of AI slop articles and those that are not AI are always the same copy pasted from each other. On tiktok locals will make their own list of prefered places and show them and how to go there.

How tf is this cope I don’t even use this shit. Just give me the better sources for everything then ? Because I know people who use it and they find things hard to find otherwise. Just because it’s a shit social media doesn’t mean you should lie about what it can do.
Manifestation footage is footage of a manifestation. Quite often people I know who use tiktok talk to me about things going on in other countries that are not talked about in public media

Give me a search engine with as much easy to find specific content then ?
- Comment on TikTok allegedly monitoring users’ Grindr activity, digital rights group claims 3 weeks ago:
To be more honest:
Tiktok is actually very useful to find
- very specific recipes
- rare places to visit
- specific tutorials
- content in rare languages
- insight from countries and cultures not found in regular media
- some manifestation footage from the pov of the people
- even some war/violent event footage before moderation and is better than Youtube, Reddit or a regular search engine for those.
However, it also has huge amounts of
- misinformation
- political propaganda
- dumb people
- pseudoscience
- mass surveillance
and it’s usage has negative effects on brain such as:
- reduced attention span
- distorted time perception
- boredom intolerance

- Comment on ChatGPT is down worldwide, conversations disappeared for users 5 weeks ago:
This is a bad faith argument. Search engines are notoriously bad to find rare specialized information and usually return empty search results for too specific requests. Moreover you need the exact keywords while LLMs use embeddings to find similar meanings

Yeah I can’t wait for it.
In the mean time, you could try Veshell which I think has potential as well

No but they are trying to merge ChromeOS with Android. Specifically running any linux app natively on Android

The experience is not the same

Right now Android is a significantly better experience on touch screens like phones and tablets. And that would still hold for 2-in-1 laptops. Same for TVs and home consoles, better designed for remote/gamepad control.
Support is developing though and as we get more touch friendly and gamepad friendly linux, we get more PC friendly android, including non wall-gardened forks.
